DRIVER ABNORMALITY DETERMINATION APPARATUS, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM

A driver abnormality determination apparatus includes circuitry configured to detect a driver state of a driver of a vehicle, detect a driving operation of the driver, detect an exertion level of an involuntary function of the driver based on the driver state, detect an exertion level of a driving function of the driver based on the driving operation; and determine driver abnormality based on the execution level of the involuntary function and the execution level of the driving function. On condition that a function level of one of the execution level of the involuntary function and the execution level of the driving function is equal to or lower than a specified determination criterion, the circuitry is configured to relax a determination criterion for the other function level.
